It’s June 2024 and this video is still helping us that enjoy making upgrades to our homes! Thank you! Appreciate you!😊

That was the most explanatorial version of setting that up that I've run across😊

[VerdoThomas]

Your tip on the electrical tape ultimately solved my problem. I was transposing the Line & Load. The tipoff was the tape the contractor electrician left on the Line wire. Thanks for pointing that out.

Great video. Best explanation of how to install a wall timer switch. Was just about to call an electrician, when I came upon your video. You really save me some money. Thank you.

Thanks… needed this to explain it to the wife. She messed up the settings while attempting to change the On/ Off times. I know how to set it, but I have to be in front of it pressing the buttons; can’t explain it over the phone. This video touches on the subject enough for me to guide her through it.

Thanks Adam... I needed clarification on setting dusk dawn. Perfect.

Thank you. Video definitely helped with my timer switch install. I would have never known to find the neutral wire hookup in back of the box.

YouTube content makers to the rescue again! Thank you

Your video helped me install a light switch with a timer for some outdoor security lights. My timer is on the far left, but the wiring is the same. I wish I could send some pictures. Thank you for the help.

I just bought one like this and a complete noob at installing this. You made it very clear and easy for me.

[MichaelAarons]

Now this was helpful. I’m gonna need one of those custom plates because mine are the flip switches not the teeter switches that you can barely tell which way they are at a distance.

[mickcharlesbeaver]

Thanks a million! I didn't know what to do with the neutral wires and this was very clear.

👍Great Job!!! Lot easier than the written instructions they sent with the switch😁

[casseymont]

I want to try this at my house. Thank you for sharing this video.

I have the GE SunSmart Digital Timer - looks to be exact same device. Great directions - was able to very quickly install - worked great. Many thanks!

[dianapowers]

Thank you so very much for this instructional video. It was explained very carefully and slowly so that I could follow along and reset my timer. Thank you again.

[keithmurphy]

This was excellent and in plain english I could understand for my single switch. now I need to do my two location switch,

[susanwelton]
